Wow a choclate chess set!! :eek2:
only wouldnt he choclate melt if you played with it :sick:
but the great part about chess is if you "take" a piece of the other side, instead of just taking it off the board and putting it next to you, you can eat it! Winner is the one who eats the most chocolate :DQuote:

and amazon even sell molds for the chess board as well as the pieces mmmmmmmm I have friend who plays chess with every year I might... oh no wait a minute thats in egypt it would all melt and he never lets me win anyway so hed get all the choclate....
I bought so many chocolates a few days back and I can see that instead of me its my mother who is eating most of it, sometimes parents behave so strangely. :rolleyes: :lol:
I like chocolate covered coffee beans.
And has anyone had any cordial cherry hershey kisses? Those are pretty tasty.
But on that note, why do candy bar companies keep coming out with all these limited edition versions of their candy bars? They also had some coconut hershey kisses in a blue rapper....
And then there are the white chocolate reese cups :sick: --- I think those are here to stay now, but I don't know why. It could be because of my coworker --- she just loves them. In fact she has a huge candy dish full of them and she eats them all day long -- they're probably making all their profit off of sales to her...
And what about those reese cups that were inside out (or did I just dream that?)
And how about the giant m&m's? And don't they have the white chocolate M & M's now too?
And what did they do to the tootsie roll? They dipped it chocolate --- didn't think that one was necessary.
Chunky
chunky
chunky!
I adore it!
:D I love texture in my food as well! Chunky chocolate chip cookies are to die for. So is chunky peanut butter ;)Quote:

I know Kathy a lot of people say that white chocolate is great.
I never understood that.
Did anyone here taste lindt milk chocolate.
Mmm, yes Lindt truffles are excellent. Plus they have nice wrappers. ( I know, who cares about what wraps the chocolate, just what it tastes like! ) :lol:
Cant eat lindt :( theyre liquor choclates.....actualy come to think of it cant have truffles either.
How come you can't have truffles? Religious reason?Quote:

The contatin alchol usually cant have alchols so cant truffles.Quote:

The only kind of truffle I have ever had is the confectionary kind. The "real" truffles are much too expensive. :(
Truffles.
*edit* sam96 this kind here? Lindt
Kathy,
Same name,same trade mark,different package,different WRAPPERS!!.
Mine doesn't have alcohol too.
And there r 2 kinds of lindt in it.
HUmm I might have to kill someone....:mad:
them: "Oh you cant have those they have alchol in them"
Me" really? Oh but it was a present...sigh.. oh well you have them then."
I think I may have been conned:mad:
((g)):rolleyes:
Uh oh. It is wise to never stand between a woman and her chocolate. Next time check the ingredients, Night, they should list alcohol there if it is in the truffle. Hopefully. I know they have to in the US, but I don't know how things work in the UK...my last visit there was over ten years ago. :(
Very much agree...white chocolate isn't made from cocoa beans right?So, technically (and...flavourly?!) it's not chocolate. The only one I can actually eat without turning my nose up is made by Green&Blacks...but they've put some vanilla in it and the taste is quite different from normal white choc.Quote:

It is not that the taste of it is so horrible, it is simply so bland compared to real chocolate.

White chocolate is a type of chocolate based on cocoa butter without the cocoa solids. It also includes milk solids, sugar, lecithin, and flavorings (usually including vanilla). Cocoa butter is the ingredient used in other chocolates so that they remain solid at room temperature yet melt easily in the mouth. Thus, white chocolate has a texture like that of chocolate but does not have the same taste. Unlike chocolate it does not contain caffeine.
As white chocolate does not contain cocoa solids or cocoa mass, it does not meet the standards to be called chocolate in many countries. In the United States, since 2004, white chocolate needs to be at least 20% (by weight) cocoa butter, at least 14% total milk solids, and less than 55% sweeteners such as sugar. Before this date, US firms needed temporary marketing permits to sell this cocoa solids-free chocolate. The European Union has adopted similar standards: white chocolate needs to contain not less than 20% cocoa butter and not less than 14% dry milk solids.
Some "white chocolate" is made with vegetable fat and not derived from cocoa. Vegetable fat-derived white chocolate is white in color, whereas cocoa butter-derived white chocolate is ivory-colored.
I am a huge fan of chocolate....The best in store brand, in my opinion, is Lindt.....closest you will get to the real thing in retail stores
Some news for every chocolate lover -- 12th Feb, is a Chocolate Day :D

Oh no! The photos are so big!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's me taking a time off unpacking the stuff in our new house. That's why I look so haggard. :sick:
You are truly an inspiration to all of us Chocoholics Lain :thumbs_up
Thanks my dear Mira. :blush:
Gosh. You see those damn pimples?? Oh my! I blame the dust and dirt that entails moving houses.
P.S.
Those photos were taken by Reccura. ;)
Lain's obvious infatuation with chocolates astounds us all... in a good way! :)
Mind, I don't eat chocolate that way all the time. I actually don't stain anything except my tongue. I'm a neat freak when it comes to eating messy stuff and that chocolate brand keeps on melting. Just havin' some good dirty fun. :lol:
lol..:lol:Quote:

She probably makes that because she's a vegetarian. Wow. Gosh, no milk?
Aww thanks for taking a look at it! Its nice to have someone appreciate my strange, health-nut recipes :) It's sugar free as well,so ends up being quite nutritional AND chocolatey :pQuote:
